2025 doing something new / different

Cooked veg in my "new", second-hand, pressure cooker tonight.
I stood there, with the instruction book in my hand while it came to pressure, since its a bit different to the one I've been using for the last 20 years! Fortunately, it worked as it should and I'll be more confident next time I use it.

.............and everything tasted bland and full of 'sameness'?

NO, why do you say that?

We own 2 pressure cookers ones a Prestige bought in January 1982 (its written in the recipe book) then a Hawkins 2lt we take camping both work differently and have been well used over the years.
Wouldn't be without either of them.

I’ve bought a lettuce today    the first one in almost 20 years.  

Mine failed, they weren’t happy with the low temperatures, they might pick up so I’m giving them a bit of a rest.

Speaking from my experience of using a pressure cooker. Used to cook dinners in them with tatties cabbage, swede carrots etc. They all came out devoid of taste and what taste their was was all tasted the same! Because of this I threw mine out years ago.
If you rate them highly, so be it, I'm just stating my perception of pressure cookers!

Did you separate them in the pressure cooker? I cooked potatoes, carrots and parsnips last night and they tasted as they should. I wouldn't cook cabbage in the pressure cooker as its so easy to overcook it. Not a fan of squidgy cabbage.

I’m sitting here having a hot chocolate. Not done that in a long time

I bought a new car. Not done that for some 30 years.

What make, JJB? Tell us more.
